Is the boar bristle brush good for my hair type?
The boar brush is perfect for those with fine to medium hair as it’s the ideal blend of softness and strength. But, that doesn’t mean that a boar bristle brush isn’t for you if you have thicker hair.
The following are some of the advantages of utilizing a boar bristle brush:
- They distribute the natural scalp oils in your hair more evenly from the roots to the ends.
- They remove any remaining dead strands from your hair, leaving you with healthy hair.
- They close the hair strands’ cuticles to assist the hair to reflect light and give it a shine.
- Stimulate your scalp to increase blood flow.
The best way to brush your hair
It may seem simple, but there are certain techniques for brushing your hair. Keep reading for the right and wrong way to brush your hair.
To start, it can be beneficial to have a detangler or leave-in conditioner added to your hair before brushing.
It can also be helpful to start brushing at the ends, and move up to the mid-shaft, then the roots. This method will remove any tangles, make it easier to brush from root to end, and won’t cause unnecessary breakage.
Pro tip: You can prep your hair before brushing by using a wide-toothed comb in the shower right after applying your conditioner. This will save you so much time and make it easier to brush your hair in the long run.
Don’t stress about brushing your hair perfectly, but try to incorporate these tips into your brushing routine.

Be mindful of your frequency
Although brushing your hair has many benefits, try to make sure that you aren’t brushing too frequently. Over-brushing could lead to hair loss. This can be a confusing concept since brushing can benefit your hair and help stimulate hair growth. But just like all things, anything in excess can be harmful.
